Install and forget with Baumer

February 2009 Sensors & Transducers

Baumer has introduced a generation of high-grade steel sensors that can be used in virtually any product. Combining this with Baumer’s signature sensor miniaturisation allows simple integration of the sensors into customer-designed housings. With decades of experience in temperature and pressure sensors, the product range has now been expanded with many innovative new position sensors.

Inductive sensors that are now indispensable for automation tasks are being offered in various 1.4404 all-metal versions. Enhanced EMC immunity and expanded temperature ranges up to +100°C are special features of these sensors. They are available from a diameter of 6,5 mm.

Laser distance sensors with accuracies down to the μm range can be used easily both outdoors and in the process area. Protection classes up to IP 69K and their insensitivity to ambient light up to 100 kLux make these sensors unique.

Baumer is also setting new standards with the VeriSens family of vision sensors. The rugged high-grade steel housing is resistant to most aggressive media and suitable for use in the food or pharmaceutical industries.

The compact and powerful FlexiDrive positioning drive is also available in a high-grade steel version for drive technology. All drives are available with various bus interfaces such as CANopen or Profibus-DP.
